So I wanted to review this series, and I can't reconcile your claim here
with the demidlayering Dave has done. The driver patches here don't
ouright undo what Dave has done, but that means the bug has been
preexisting since forever (or is due to some other change?), and your
commit message is a bit confusing here.
The final patch just undoes the demidlayering from Dave, and I really
don't see where there's even a functional change there.
And even these patches here don't really change a hole lot with the
calling sequence for at least final teardown: ttm_tt_destroy_common calls
ttm_tt_unpopulate as the first thing, so at least there there's no change.
Can you pls elaborate more clearly what exactly you're fixing and what
exactly needs to be reordered and where this bug is from (commit sha1)? As
is I'm playing detective and the evidence presented is extremely since and
I can't reconcile it at all.
I mean I know you don't like typing commit message and documentation, but
it does get occasionally rather frustrating on the reviewer side if I have
to interpolate between some very sparse hints for this stuff :-/
